Jack felt a chill run down his spine. He turned and saw his stepmother and Julia Garcia at the entrance. He looked
at Alice.“Let’s eat.” He'd already made it clear to his stepmother and Julia Garcia that he wouldn't marry Julia
Garcia, especially now that he had Alice.
Alice returned to the room with Jack.“The supplier's scandal implicated Miss Garcia's charity, and they might

Jack knew.“Don’t worry. Since everyone is involved, they have no right to look down on your parents’
foundation.”
“Your parents?” Alice looked at him, touched. She would bring Jack to meet her parents during the New Year. To
To her, the Land brothers weren't family; only Jack was.
Jack already had a plan; Alice wouldn't suffer any injustice. If it weren't for the fact that they hadn't found the

Jack briefly explained the situation.
Garrett cursed.“The Lands are shameless! They're desperate to accept someone like Chloe. I'll tell my aunt.”
Jack returned to the room, his sharp edge gone, replaced with gentleness. The food arrived.
Alice looked up.“You were on the phone; | ordered already.”
